Church of the Descent of the Holy Spirit

The Church of the Descent of the Holy Spirit in Kargopol, Arkhangelsk region is a closed Orthodox church in a dilapidated state. It is located at the intersection of Soviet and Akulov streets. The church was built between 1772 and 1797. It was a five-domed temple with one apse and a refectory room. The church was famous for its miraculous icon – a carved image of St. Nicholas of Mozhaisk.

In the early thirties, the temple was closed, its weddings were broken, and the premises were converted and rebuilt for economic purposes. The temple is still in this state.
